Microsoft To Test MSN Messenger 7
Security 03/29/2005 06:33 AM
Microsoft is planning to block all hotlinks, Winks and Dynamic Display Pictures from being sent or received for a testing period starting today until Thursday 31st.

An MSN spokesperson creditted the additional testing to the recent virus attacks which attempted to use MSN Messenger as a way to spread harmful code. Over the 48 hour testing the period the MSN Messenger team will be testing different methods of blocking malicious code from being transferred on MSN Messenger.

The testing will only effect users using MSN Messenger 7 build 732 and any public builds are likely to be unaffected. Initially the MSN Messenger 7 beta was halted when users discovered a fatal flaw in the implementation of the new Winks feature.

MSN Messenger 7 is expected to be released in the coming months.

Microsoft Integrate Belgian eID into MSN
Messenger

Microsoft Integrate Belgian eID into MSN
Messenger 02/01/2005 09:39 PM
Popular messenger resource <a href="http://www.mess.be">Mess.be</a> is reporting that Microsoft will soon announce plans to incorporate the Belgian <a href="http://www.neowin.net/images/news/logos/eid.jpg">eI D system</a> with MSN Messenger. An eID, or electronic ID, gives users a trustworthy way of identifying themselves online and can be used for a variety of means. The eID contains a electronic chip like modern credit cards, and is gradually replacing the existing ID card system in Belgium.

"The eID is gradually replacing traditional identity cards and by December 31st of 2009, all citizens over 12 who reside on the Belgian territory should own the chip-equipped card. Just like the classical ID, the eID contains your photo, surname and first names, sex, nationality, place and date of birth, signature, national number as well as the validity period of the card. But all this information (including the photo) will also be electronically stored."

It's not known exactly how the system will integrate with MSN Messenger; card readers, although the most obvious solution, seem somewhat impractical for home users. The news was announced today by Microsoft chairman Bill Gates who is on a trip to Belgium; Gates is slowly making his way to the European government where he will be meeting with EU representatives to talk about the ongoing case against Microsoft. The eID system in Belgium would appear to offer the kind of solution that Microsoft tried to introduce (but failed) with Passport; it offers a variety of features based around the central idea of a single "sign-on" mechanism.

Gate's hinted at the possibility of other countries adopting a similar system, yet it is not known specifically which. In the UK, where the government has plans to introduce a similar ID card system, the issue is strongly fought against by privacy advocates and is viewed in a poor light by the public.

There was a noticeable sense of accomplishment in his voice when he answered. First he pointed out the dominant market position achieved by the iPod. Then he noted that the iTunes store had just captured more than 80 percent of the market for legally downloaded music.

A glitch in Microsoft's Windows Update automated patching service caused a security fix that was released last month to be delivered to computer users on Tuesday, the same day Microsoft proclaimed December would be a patch-free month. The software patch fixes a serious vulnerability in a set of Web site management tools called FrontPage Server Extensions, which are part of Microsoft's Windows 2000, Windows XP and Office XP software, according to Microsoft Security Bulletin MS03-051 released Nov. 11. Exploiting the flaw could allow an attacker to gain control over a user's PC, Microsoft said.

First learn computer science and all the theory. Next develop a programming style. Then forget all that and just hack. -- George Carrette

Reminds me of the time the Malaysian government sent a software team to Canada to do technology transfer for a flight simulator system. After spending 2 years in Canada, they returned, and i asked one of the team members how the Canadian coders designed this powerful and complex system. I was expecting some detailed software methodology involving multiple phases. He told me, "they just hire a bunch of talented programmers, teach them the physics, and tell them to hack!"

I posted this comment a few weeks ago, but i never clarified what i thought of this quotation - until now...

Let's say you learnt a subject really well, and were asked to teach others. You enjoy teaching and others admire your teaching style. Then one day, you throw away all your notes and teach off-the-cuff, from memory. You have to really know your stuff before you'd dare do that.

We'll that's what I think George Carrette meant by "Just Hack". If you don't know your stuff inside-out, upside-down and every-which-way, "Just Hack" is probably not for you.
